Since I am totally ignorant of the complexed visa issues, can someone answer these queiries for me:
  1. How is the situation for J1 waiver for IMGs in Psych/IM/FM/Peds after residency?
  2. If one does get it, he can continue living in US or still has to go out and come back in?
  3. If he does get a J1 waiver what are the chances of obtaining fellowships in above subspecialties?
  4. If he is on H1 what are the chances for fellowships after residency in them?
  5. If he finishes his residency on H1 and doesn't find a fellowship, what is he supposed to do?
  6. Practically overall what is the advantage of H1 over J1 or vice versa?



I am sorry if it sounds stupid but I needed to know in order to make an informed decision and anticipate what lies ahead. Only thing I know is that residencies are abundant on J1 and H1 doc doesn't need to return after residency.
